Chapter 306
“You’re Grace.” What Hadwin Stephenson said was not a
question, but an affirmation. After he happened to see Linal
Sweeney in the street that day, he began to scout out everything
about Lina Sweeney.
Of course, among the materials he found was this Grace.
She was Lina Sweeney’s best friend. It was also because Lina Sweeney had to help Grace with her lawsuit that Lina Sweeney suddenly took the earliest flight back home from abroad. She went to great lengths to help Grace find lawyers and all kinds of
evidence.
In other words, it was also because of Grace that Lina Sweeney
left him so quickly.
Hadwin Stephenson’s heart was strangely uncomfortable when he thought of this.
If Grace was not a woman, Hadwin Stephenson might have
treated her as a rival.
“Yes, I am,” Grace said, raising her chin.
“You have no right to meddle in the affairs between Lina Sweeney and me. You’d better not overrate yourself in some matters. I show no mercy to women,” Hadwin Stephenson said coldly.
However, the more anxious she was, the more Hadwin Stephenson found the scene before him irritating.
Just then, Jason finally lazily said, “I don’t care what happens between you and Lina Sweeney, but you can’t touch Grace.”
Hadwin Stephenson turned to Jason with a slightly surprised look in his eyes. “I didn’t expect Young Master Reed to visit me so late
at night.”
What surprised him was the relationship between Jason and Grace. He had checked Grace and found out about Grace’s case. It was Grace who ran over and killed Jason’s fiancée, Jennifer Atkinson. However, it was now clear to everyone that Grace and Jason had an unusual relationship.
“I’m taking Lina Sweeney with me tonight,” Jason said.
Hadwin Stephenson frowned and sneered. “Didn’t you just say that you don’t care about what happens between Lina Sweeney and me?”
“I won’t mind after tonight, but right now, I’m taking her with me,”
Jason said.
The two men looked at each other, and there seemed to be some tension in the air. It made the people watching breathless.
Grace and Lina Sweeney could not help but stare at each other.
“If I disagree, are you going to take her by force?” Hadwin
“I do have this in mind,” Jason replied with an air of confidence as if taking Lina Sweeney away from his turf was nothing difficult.
Hadwin Stephenson’s eyes gradually darkened. Although it was only a short time since he took over the Stephenson family, he was well aware of Jason’s social status in Emerald City.
He turned around to look at Lina Sweeney and asked, “Do you want to leave?”
Lina Sweeney was stunned. She stared at the man she had not seen for more than three years and hesitated for a moment before saying, “I want to leave.”
Hadwin Stephenson pursed his thin lips. “You are as heartless as
ever.”
She tried to argue, but the look in his eyes made her feel like something was stuck in her throat. The pain in her heart also
seemed to come back.
Jason then left Hadwin Stephenson’s house with Grace and Linal Sweeney. Hadwin Stephenson told the subordinate who had
brought them in, “Get out.”
“Yes,” he responded.
